In West Virginia, that is. Catch the details here.
In Pennsylvania, the water supply in home after home in Bradford County has been contaminated not too far from where Chesapeake is drilling. The Susquehanna River is bubbling methane...not too far from where Chesapeake is drilling. And we have only seen the beginning of the nightmare that folks who signed leases have welcomed into our watersheds.
Once the weather warms up a bit, I will be on the river again. I've recently purchased some high tech underwater video paraphernalia, and I plan to shoot some footage - not only of the bubbling waters in Sugar Run - but at another location downstream a bit that has been brought to my attention in the past few days.
2011 is shaping up to be one helluva year. Tom Corbett is our new bought-and-paid-for governor. GASLAND has been nominated for an Oscar. And Chesapeake is making more promises they cannot keep.
Spring is less than two months away. Stay tuned.
